QuoteReplyTopic: I have a picture of extension breakage Posted: April 06 2005 at 8:39am
These are a couple that have come off. I took them all of last night. Not the easiest thing! The glue is VERY hard to get out. There is still some left.
The stylist is not at the salon anymore?? I do have the rest of my fushion hair though. And as of last night I decided to get them out. A few more came out but I can only see one small bald spot thank goodness!! The glue was very hard to get out. There is still abit in there.
When you say disturbing..do you mean they should have not come out with that amount of hair still from my root?
I would love to try again so would the microlinks be better for me? Maybe my hair can't take the glue?? Who knows.
Hmm..without seeing the actual extensions in your hair, it's really
hard to say what the problem is, but in general, no--I don't think
there's a reason why you can't wear extensions (unless you have a
hairloss or some other physical condition that affects your hair's
strength or ability to grow); from the sounds of it, the problems were
the result of the installation or the aftercare. Sometimes, it does
take a few tries to figure out which method is best for you.
I think you might have more luck with extentubes or shrinkies. In
general, I think they're gentler than fusion, and they're definitely
worth a try. You should be sure to do some strand tests with either
method before installing a whole head.
Personally, my favorite method is pinchbraids because, ultimately, I
find it to be the least damaging on my hair, but they can be hard to do
yourself without a lot of practice. For DIY, I think shrinkies or
extendtubes are your best options.
Congratulations on getting the fusion bonds out without creating more
damage; it's not always that easy. What did you use to take them out?

Yeah, microrings or microlinks are essentially the same thing, but
extentubes (the ones sold at hairpiece.com and haircandy.net) have
gotten the best reviews.
Hi Molly, i specialise in fusion extenions and what your picture shows is not that surprising as i see this alot from customers that have had it done elsewhere and come to me looking for a weave. Let me explain.....
If fusion method is used then you must use a certain sized area of your own hair then when applying the extension hair it must either be the same size as your selected area or smaller but defo not larger. It looks really pretty to have small bonds but its not practical.
From your photos, it looks like they have only used a small section of your hair (too small) and the weight of the extensions has broken your hair. (I hope i have explained this right!)
If applied correctly there is no damage to your own hair with fusion (if also removed professionaly)
if you need any further advice on this then you can email me any time
